RapeLay: The Video Game, yes, I’m serious.

RapeLay is a 3D ” rape simulator” by Illusion Soft, makers of the Artificial Girl series. The player takes the role of a rapist who stalks a family consisting of three young women, raping them repeatedly until their will breaks and they become his slaves. These games are very Popular in Japan, and many different editions have been released.
Story
The main character is a sexual predator who attempts to grope a teenage girl named Aoi Kiryuu, only to wind up arrested when she screams bloody murder. Your wealthy parents bribe the police into letting you go, so you decide that as punishment for her wholy lawful act, you will rape Aoi, as well as her mother and younger sister.

Gameplay
RapeLay’s gameplay is divided in three main parts:

* Phase One

The games begins with the player following the victim at the train station. In this first phase one of the few things you can do, is pray the gods for a quick squall of winds that will blow up the victims skirt.

* Phase Two

Once on the train the actual groping may begin, once the victim is aroused the train will stop and the next phase of the game begins.

* Phase Three

The third and final phase of every scene is the actual rape scene, NPC rapists (This Term, “NPC Rapists” is now Forever stuck in my lexicon.) can be called in to participate in the event. The location in which this happens varies with the victims. The actual location of the rape depends on the characters being raped. Yuuko’s location is in the park, Aoi gets raped in a bathroom and Manaka in her bedroom.

* Free Phase

Once the “story” is done the player gains access to “free play” here the player can select which character and where this character should be raped. In addition to the 3 different “rape locations” that the player has access to the story mode, three new locations become available, A hotel room, an alley and the subway itself.

* Pregnancy and Abortion

Once “Free Phase” is unlocked the different girls can get pregnant if you choose to ejaculate inside them during vaginal sex. If a child gets born the player will be thrown in front of the subway train. Forced abortion will result in the girls committing suicide by suicide pill.

* Endings

There are only two different endings in Rapelay, both of which involve the player character dying. If you have sex with Aoi in the cowgirl position before her will is broken, you will get an ending where she takes advantage of the position to stab you to death with a pair of scissors. The other ending occurs if you let a pregnant girl carry her baby to term. Unwilling to let the child be raised by you, the mother pushes you in front of a train the next time you’re at the subway station. There is no “happy” or “good” ending in RapeLay; if you avoid these two endings, the game lets you go on raping the women forever.

I am damn near speech less.
Not only is this a Video game about rape, but like all things here, it is so convoluted and generally absurd its almost unimaginable. You’re not just groping and raping in the game, you are doing it out of revenge!
I can’t think of too many things more Japanese than this.

This has all the trapping of an Internet Hoax but no its real. Apparently in early 2009 there was a big controversy when this game was discovered for sale on Amazon.

An Australian network did a piece on it and they have a great quote from Illusion the Yokohama-based software designer:

“We are simply bewildered by the move,” spokesman Makoto Nakaoka said. “We make the games for the domestic market and abide by laws here. We cannot possibly comment on [the campaign] because we don’t sell them overseas.”

They even have a quote from the Japanese Government’s gender equality bureau ” werealises the problem is there … While we recognise that some sort of measures need to be taken, the office is currently studying what can be done,” she said.

[…] On our walk to the back of the store, to the AV department, Azusa tells me about a Sims-esque dating video game in Japan called Love Plus. You have to work your charm and take a virtual girl out on dates until she’ll be your girlfriend. A lot of the otaku, or the more socially maladjusted cognoscenti in Japan, take the game very seriously and even hold conventions to show off their new CGI girlfriends. Recently, I found another gaming option for those not looking for so serious a commitment. It’s called RapeLay. […]
